DesignControlsby ~LBassett

Traditional Art / Drawings / Miscellaneous

Briefly, this is a couple random pages of an exploration I'm making into very specific, deliberate controls of design that can be used to intentionally affect the emotional response of the viewer.

Here, for example, I think they may all be shown, but in this image are examples of Nine seperate controls that can be applied to image creation. They are:

1) Overlapping Planes
2) Counterchange (alternation of hue, value and/or chrome in a controlled alternating fashiono)
3) Line over Mass (most of these are exactly what they sound like)
4) Implied Line
5) Interlocking Rhythm
6) Open Colour/Offset Conture (basically, coloring outside the lines, deliberatly and for intentional effect)
7) Transparency/Translucency
8) Forced Edge (emphasis of a particular edge greater than others in the image)
9) The Dynamic Trellis (useful for handling dynamic linear forces - it provides the maximum linear opposition within an ordered design. Lines are limited to six directions: balancing diagonals, perpendiculars to each of these diagonals, and optional verticals and horizontals)

Once you've memorized that, and begun to apply these very deliberate and specific controls with intentional effect, you'll very quickly achieve the ability to more intentionally create the images you desire, with control over the emotional response and guidance of the eyes over the page.

Ask any artist about “emptiness&#x 201D; and they’ll tell you about the constant recurring nightmarish emptiness they must face down almost every day as a part of their vocation: the blank space that they must fill. Whether he’s a painter facing a blank canvas or she’s...

A lot of people tell me they like the way I color! It's pretty easy once you learn the tricks. I made a set color palette for each character (keeping their base colors consistent in any setting), then add shading and lighting effects over the image.Here is Gabrielle's color swatch palette:A...
